spatial perception cannot exist without vision.
How does someone who is blind from birth have spatial perception then?
Vision is one particular sense that can lead to a 3-dimensional model of the
world (spatial perception) but there are others (touch & echo-location
hearing to name two).
Why can't echo-location lead to spatial perception without vision? Why
can't touch?

Why is *vision* necessary for grounding or to completely "understand"
natural language?
My mistake. I misinterpreted the definitions of vision and spatial
perception. I agree that there is not a clear separation between the
definition of vision and spatio-perception--spatial perception cannot
exist without vision. Vision can be spatial because it does not have to be
color-vision or human like vision. Spatial can be visual because you have
to visually contruct the model.
